It seems so surreal...
the IB exams, the focus and aim of my last 4 years of existence draws closer and closer. only 5 more days to go till Maths Paper 1.
surrealism indeed...
somehow i'm not stressed, i'm sanguine. sanguinely pleasantly ok.
it's like a death row immate waiting for the warden to say
'ok, it's your turn.'
i think i'm as prepared as i can be, maybe one more practice paper for each subject, and i'll be ok... to some, that might seem quite a lot.
well well. i'm not going to study anymore today. let me enjoy my sangunity (if there's such a word) for one night.

you make decisions just because you want to stay in control.
even when you're proven wrong, you still not believe in facts, but must have things your way.
instead of encouraging, you deflate.
your incessant nagging puts people down.
and i'm sick of it. i've never flamed out like that before. I've had enough.

Sometimes i feel that teachers forget that we are students
multi-disciplinary students.
students that have more than one subject (theirs) to do.

While choosing the birthday present, i realised something.
if you snooze, you lose big time.
or if you don't take your opportunities, you lose bigger.
case in point, 16/12/2006.
everyone around you could see that you like her. even her ex, who was throwing you dirty looks throughout the whole of dinner. her friends told you 'don't talk with us, go and talk with her lah!' and giggled their way through.
you couldn't stage a rebuttal, you knew they were right. If not why would you spend so much on 2 concert tickets?'
'hey let's go to the roof, i wanna see what's up there',
but you didn't know how to
damn.
and now, she's attached with someone else, and you are staggering along with your life, living for EL P2's, EE's, TOK's etc.
case study 2
'hey you wanna go'
'yeh why not.'
when you felt better, you didn't bother to do anything. you twiddled your thumbs, and saw it fall to someone else. it's your fault. know that.
it seems that after one failed attempt (caused by indecision and basically balless behaviour on your part), another one comes swinging by.
C to D to E to ?
don't blow it again. you have (after the exams) all the time in the world. don't blow it...

Ok, apparently only i check the LMS.
cos i was stuck with the two girls today for a Q&A session of physics today with KS.
well well...
sitting here at starbucks Holland V, after a night of catching only last 20 minutes of Champions League footie, well.
can't type properly. keep typing the wrong stuff and having to backspace a hell lot. well well....
when i first turned on the TV, i saw KIEV 1-0 MANU.
oh crap.
then i realised it was 1-4. oh well, waking up at 4 am does that to your eyes.
great last 20 mins in Rangers v Barca.
ok i wanna blog about the huge furor over repealling Section 377A.
well for the uninformed or uninitiated. That's the law that makes homosexuality in Singapore illegal.
well but i can't blog no crap now when my hands are freezing and my eyes wanna shut down.
ok so i might do it later at 0000...

Part 1 of my life is almost over.
It's been 12 years, 12 years in the ACS.
6 years in ACPS was where the friendships were made, where the bonds formed, via the medium of childlike innocence and curiosity. for the friends i made here, thank you for being there for me over the last 12 years.
(kenneth lui.thang.orion.yongqiang.lew.jon lui.zhi yuan.theo.etc etc too many to name) thanks a lot...
4 years in ACS(I) (Pre-IB) was a new thing. More of the child-like innocence vanished, to be replaced with more mature things. both good and bad.
3 and 4 was the most eventful. The shit we did and got done to us was the best. kluang and shanghai was, well, an experience. we bonded, we did things together. well. it was the best.
phillip.dan.elisha.stePHAN!
haha
2 years in IB, new surroundings in an old place. new people, new curriculum, new in the old. but i guess we survived. barely.
genesis.antioch.
well well...
time for the IBIBIB exams!
m..mmmonster kill!

Interesting article here
What is a Singaporean?
It's my personal feeling that as citizens and PRs spend two years of their life (and many other months after that) serving in our nation's army, there should be some other paybacks for us.
It would be nice if after we come out, we would be able to get a job, start a family. blah blah.
Why do we need to that many FTs? Isn't our education system one of the best in the world? Aren't we capable enough to produce enough talent to provide a constant supply of top talent (to be CEOs and all), above-average talent (to be managers) etc.
Maybe it might be better for us to offer bonded scholarships to scholars, to make them maybe work 2 years in Singapore or something. It would serve 2 purposes. Firstly, the money we invest into them would have a return. If the government wants more FTs to serve in our economic growth, than retaining them via contract would be better than spending the money, only to let them go overseas to study and never come back.
Singapore's economic boom, although largely attributed to FDIs, has been made by employing locals to run the businesses, and this has been largely successful. Why the need to displace us in favour of the FTs, i don't quite understand.
With a population of 6.5 million (as projected by the gov't), plus the prediction of 52% of people above 55 living to around 85 (thanks mr chew for the correction), it might lead to an acute aging crisis. Plus, we might become more and more like HK, overcrowded, and a widening income inequality. I think the 4.8 million is enough, and the govt should realise that economic growth is not the alpha and omega for Singapore...

i'm pissed
cos i got deducted one mark for EVERY sig fig error in my maths p1
cos i screwed up econs (especially p1) so badly
cos my english got torn to shreds
it sucks when you have studied and put in all that effort only to get shitty grades.
some of it is my fault i know, but i would like to say... that the marking is way off the charts..
oh well back to mugging for IB!
38, 38, 38!
